"God" - Summer 1992, Argyle Texas

This is another piece written the summer of 1992.  It is the very first piece I had published - Echos Of Yesterday - The National Library of Poetry @1994.  I have shared it with a friend or two over the years - as well as penning it in calligraphy for my dad's office. Still one of my favorites.

God By Angela Wilcox, 1992

In the still dark night,
     Under soft moonlight,
          I wonder if You are there.

When I feel great pain,
     And no peace I can gain,
     I wonder, "Do You really care?"

Then I look in the sky,
     And the stars twinkle high,
          I know You are watching somewhere.

The creation of earth,
     The existence of birth,
          Show Your power and love everywhere.

Then when my struggles cease,
     And I allow Inner Peace,
          I feel Your strength and Your Care.
